Wests Tigers prop Terrell May stormed into second place on the Dally M Medal leaderboard on the back of a herculean performance in his side's golden point triumph over the Sharks.
May played 84 minutes at Leichhardt Oval and ran for 228 metres from 29 hit-ups as the Tigers got home 20-18 on the back of an Adam Doueihi penalty goal in the 89th minute.
Despite his team losing the game, Sharks fullback Will Kennedy produced another standout display to pick up three Dally M votes to remain on top of the standings after eight rounds.
Warriors playmaker Luke Metcalf, Storm back-rower Eli Katoa and Manly forward Haumole Olakau'atu all picked up the maximum six votes as their sides posted impressive ANZAC Round victories.
